I don’t have a Halloween costume to this party I’ve been invited to and i planned to just show up dressed regularly when I found a pink vest in my wardrobe. I haven’t ever seen a cosplay for Ham before so I’m taking my liberties with this lol. I’m going to wear the vest with green cargo pants and brown boots (can’t find my black ones) with some gold jewelry.

I kinda hope I run into someone who has read Mistborn so we can debate over if this is an okay fit. Telling yall cos I have no irl friends who have read the series.

(Before I post, obviously please don’t give me any spoilers or hint too strongly at specific things in the book… I’ve never read Mistborn before!!)

Hey there… I am someone who used to read a lot of books, but I haven’t read a book in a very very long time.

For my husband’s birthday, I decided to read his favorite book (which is Mistborn, as you may have deduced from where I’m posting this) & I’m going to annotate it as I go… he’s been wanting me to read it for soooo long and I promised I would, but then I didn’t and it’s became a bit of a sore spot. So I figured by making it into an actual gift it could be really nice rather than “oh hey I finally read it 5 years later”… I think he’ll be very happy with the annotated book. He’s said before that he really just wants to be able to talk to me about this book/series.

So I bought some color coded dot stickers (6 colors) so I can make a key to mark things without necessarily writing about it, and I also have post it’s with tabs so I can write my actual thoughts. Cool, cool… except I have no idea what to mark or write…?? I thought it would come to me easily but I’m just reading the book and following along with the story, and realizing “oh hey I actually don’t know what to note/write.”

Soooo for anyone who would be happy to receive a present like this… what sorts of things would you like the person to note? Any ideas for how I can do this? Typically when I read I just enjoy the story and don’t really think, if that makes sense… 😅 this is harder than I expected.

Hey folks, I just finished the first Mistborn book and I have to say that I was left kinda disappointed by this book. Although I do understand that it was Brandon Sanderson’s earlier books and he was still fairly new to the genre and he needed to convince and impress a large audience of fantasy readers that he is a good writer, the setting and characters in this story just feels sooo generic and unoriginal. Never got too attached to any of the characters and they feel so 2-dimensional and generic and I’m really thinking about if it’d be worth to continue the series? Don’t get me wrong though, I did read the Stormlight Archives and it is my favourite book serie of all time, maybe my expectations were too high going into Mistborn thinking it would be at the same scale as the Stormlight books, but what do you guys think ? Do any of you feel the same way or am I being absurd ? Does the later books make up for it (even though the first book seemed to end completely) or should I stop ? Thanks in advance, have a great day everyone (Again, no hard feelings for any of you who adore these books)

Spoiler alert #mistborn the final empire I just finished chapter 30 and 31 Vin's fight against Shan was amazing the moment she stuck the first half of the arrow in her i litterly gasped and shouted HOLY SHIT 😂 . I btw love Vin and Elend romance its not the best romance Storyline in the world but its just wholesome and i really like them together cant wait to see how that ends. I also loved vin's outburst against Kelsier and the crew bassicly saying how they are hypocrits who act like nobleman but simultaneously want all nobleman dead And that they didnt know how it was like to not be able to be anything else but a skaa starving in the gutters. I also bawled my eyes out reading the part of Vin finnaly breaking down under the weight of her trauma and that she loved reen despite everything he had done to her And how afraid she is about everyone abandoning her and asking kelsier when he is gonna leave her it really connected with me because i have attachment disorder myself and i know how it feels thinking you might end up alone and pushing people away because your scared to be Abandoned. Anyway this is a long thread and ive been rambling for far two long i give these chapters a 9.8/10

Ps. I love to hear y'all thoughts

I can't seem to find an unboxing or anything and I'm considering getting them. I'm curious about the general quality and such, thanks in advance.

Repost because of possible spoilers in the title. I can’t understand how people act like „they are two sides of the same coin“ or „they are both incredibly evil it doesn’t make sense to call one good and one bad“

After taking my 3 kids Trick or Treating, we're in the car driving home & my youngest daughter says "it's proven that alot of the candy kids get from Tick or Treating, is eaten by their parents".

When we get home the kids begin taking assessments of their massive hoard of candy. My youngest daughter then begins counting each piece of her candy. She says "dad I have 134 pieces of candy". She's worried I'm going to steal some of her candy - which she was wrong about, of course. I'd never steal.

Hours later, after the kids had eventually fallen asleep, I mosied through the kitchen & on the table I noticed 3 giant bags of Halloween Candy. I reached in & grabbed a Reese's. I dug into my pocket & fished out a pen, - a rather nice pen I had traded for at the bank earlier - & left the pen in place of the Reese's. Fair trade, that was.

So I just realized my Mistborn copy I got from Amazon is first edition, and aparently also first printing. Does anyone know if it's worth something?

Recently picked up Era 1 for a reread and found the card my bf sent along with the Era 1 box set as a gift, and thought I'd share with you all.

(He's more a graphic novel person, but I've fangirled enough about Sanderson so he knows a lot. Thinking of converting him via the audio books now, cuz I'm definitely not marrying him until he gets into the Cosmere.)

[SPOILERS PRESENT] Just finished Hero of Ages, and I have a question. I understand that Ruin was posing as Kelsier and speaking to Spook when he had a hemalurgic spike in him. But he eventually figures it out, saves the day, and goes into a coma. But during the coma he hears somebody’s voice, wakes up, and clued in by the voice, immediately sends a message to Vin.

Though Vin didn’t receive the message, Marsh reading it is the reason Ruin could finally be defeated.

So the voice that spoke to Spook… who did it belong to? Preservation was dead by this point, Vin still hadn’t gotten the power, and obviously neither had Sazed. So who spoke to him?

What do you think of my survivor of hathsin costume.

Happy Halloween everyone!

As the title says, beyond the obvious implications of Steel and Iron, how are metals sorted into "Push" and "Pull"?

Iron and Steel are obvious, and Cadmium/Bendalloy make sense in relation to the idea that Time is always traveling forward, but what about emotions? Why isn't copper a Pushing metal since it "suppresses" the signals created by using allomancy?

How does momentum affect steelpushing?

Something I have been wondering about, in the original trilogy the "consequence" or steelpushing (or ironpulling) is always framed in terms of weight (i.e. he is heavier than me, so if we push each other I fall backward). However I was curious if this is actually more closely related to Force, rather than mass/weight.

i.e. if F = m*a, then would a small (low mass) object travelling at high acceleration push back an allomancer at higher mass but stationary?

Really I'm thinking of the physics of a coinshot pushing directly against the path of a bullet or some similar object travelling at high acceleration.

Thoughts?

Asking for cosplay purposes and I can't remember if she has any face scars.

Tagging this as HoA so people can tell the story behind them too. Only Era 1, please!

I'm currently reading The Final Empire to my fianceé, who's never read any of Brandon's books. We read chapters 24-32 today, and she has somehow managed to guess both that >!Sazed is the Hero of Ages!< and that >!the well of Ascension is in Luthadel!<.

I have no idea if I managed to deflect well enough; she's way too smart for me!!
